Gotta be solar barrage. I mean more people actually use blood altar than that skill.

Discuss.

    Yeah, but people can use it by accident in like pvp by smashing buttons. You can't accidentally use a skill that you never put on your bar. Hence, the answer cannot possibly be your answer :wink:

    I know quite a few people that use Power Extraction.

    Its an AOE that gives you Major Brutality. Its perfect for Vet Dungeons.

    I use Soul Splitting Trap on my alternate bar of my Sorc - not because it's actually a good combat skill, but because there's a good place in Belkarth to steal about 20 uncharged gems at a time... and they sell for a pretty penny, so everyday when I log in for writs, I grab them - and then when I log in on the 10th days to burn my stacked enlightenment, I take out the sorc and fill up all the gems.

    It's actually quite profitable. Other than that just lol - would never use.

    It's slotted for the passives... It's being used, it's just not being actively used.

    This move is crucial for my build because people an just mount after 6 secs. So no amount of kiting works. Find a good spot to throw this down and it will stop the 12 people on mounts chasing you across the map. Work especially well with speed builds.

    This, soul assault actually gets use in PvP by ranged Magicka Templars. Soul Trap never gets used. I'd like to see an additional spell get throw in that skill line.

    Yes the first time I saw soul assault cast was also the last time. Out of curiosity I picked the skill, slotted it, and cast it once. I then realized what a terrible ultimate it was, immediately unslotted it and never cast it again. I've never seen a player use it.

    Oddly, I've also never seen players use Bat Swarm in pve group content even though there are a million vampires out there. My vampire never uses it because his class ultimates are better.

    It has a nice dmg when stunning, but it's too expensive
